Photinia Red Robin premium hedging plant
Pot-grown hedging plant.
Very popular evergreen shrub with stunning red leaves in spring. Suitable for sun or part shade. Can grow up to 3m height if required.
Supplied as 60-70cm (apx 2ft) plant in 5 litre pot.
The cool, wet conditions of autumn are ideal for establishing hedges.
Use for privacy, for windbreaks, for wildlife and to create interest and 'rooms' in your garden.
PLANTING & AFTERCARE: We would recommend 2 or 3 plants per metre, but planting density is largely dependent on how quick a result you would like.
Make sure you leave enough space for the eventual depth of the hedge - do not plant right up against boundaries!
Do not plant when soil is frozen or waterlogged. Make sure plants are well watered prior to planting. Application of rootbuilders such as mycorrhizal fungi or bonemeal can help plants establish.
Water hedging plants during dry spells for the first couple of years. For the first few years lightly clip plants all the way around (top and all sides) two or three times a year to encourage bushy growth.
Keep the area around them free of weeds, grass and other plants for the first year or so - you do not want them competing for nutrients.
